If Bork wanted to be spoken of kindly, he wouldn’t have been so outstandingly horrible. It’s not an expression of cowardice, it’s actually the Golden Rule.

Am I sorry he’s dead? To be honest, I don’t care one way or the other: I didn’t know him personally, so I have no personal sense of loss, but I suspect I am thankful that he didn’t have the opportunity to have more influence on my life than he did, which was none.

Even the U.S. Senate does something right from time to time. Or it used to.

Bork was a disgusting person with crappy morals and a hatred towards lots and lots of people who weren’t just like him. I’m not glad he is dead, but he deserves whatever names people choose to call him.
